PureBasic Forums - English

I did some tests creating new forms using the form tool and it seems that it does not work with gif files.
Not surprising since it is the first beta, I report it just to keep it noted.

thanks

p.s.
I will miss a little the event loop which has been removed, I copied and pasted the generated loop code in the application and that ...

Hi

Danilo is right,
I use PB to write programs to control machines using Rs232, Rs485, or Rs422 and I compile them as "unicode executable" since I have interfaces in different languages.
I too save log files for microcontrollers in 8 bit; I can confirm that they all work fine if you use the correct ...

I think that the reason of the miracle is that rearranging works in design view.

Hi Polo,
I admit that this error is quite tricky and it happens only in strict situations, but I can replicate it constantly even in beta 17, here is the code generated and two screen grabs.
